Formscan By Shane Redmond - BELIEVED (5) ran a huge race on her handicap debut last time and might just be best in this open looking contest. She ranaway with her maiden over a trip close to this at Dundalk in late May and then finished a close third in the King George V Stakes at Royal Ascot where she wasn't helped by the runner-up edging to his left well inside the final furlong. Both Amadeus Mozart and Nil Bua Gan Dua also went well in Royal Ascot handicaps, with the later not far off the pace in a Group 3 over a longer trip than this at Newmarket since. It's hard to rule either of them out, and the same might be said of the hat-trick seeking Saga Gaga, a course winner who followed up at Killarney early last week.

Quotes on Amadeus Mozart (IRE)

They are lovely big horses - they were never away, so they are going to come forward plenty. Ryan liked him (the winner). He said he was a lovely horse and he wouldn’t mind stepping up. He’ll be a lovely horse next year, he’s a very big horse. He was very green.

Quotes on Echo Inferno (GB)

Delighted with that. He was a big, weak horse last year and, we knew he's step forward from his seasonal debut. He absolutely loved that ground and loved the step up in trip. I think he's a horse that could be a really nice stayer in the making and, even whatever he does this year, is going to be a bonus for when he even strengthens up a bit more next year. I think he could definitely be up to a stakes horse.

Quotes on Believed (IRE)

Ben said the last time she was ready to step up to a mile and a half. She's a little bit generous like most of those Frankel's, she gives you a lot in the morning, and she could be keen. We spent a bit of time kind of concentrating on getting her relaxed. Ben said she was much more easy today, the hood has seemed to help her as well. She's a very nice filly who stays well and I think she should improve. She should keep improving. At the moment, a mile and a half seems like a good trip for her. She is bred to stay. She has won a maiden by eight lengths in Ireland, so she is ready to step up. We'll speak to the lads and see what they say. It is just always nice to get that maiden win.

Quotes

Quotes on Camino Vino (IRE)

Eddie and Wendy (O'Leary, owners) had her at the breeze-ups in May but she wasn't making enough money. Eddie liked her so much that he decided to hang on to her, and she just took time to mature and develop. I think she is going to do well with a little bit more time, she's a lovely big filly and will be lovely in time. Gavin just said she's a lovely, uncomplicated, straightforward filly. He said to jump out wherever you are, get in a rhythm and just make the best of your way home then and see how you go. He said she is doing everything right at home, and said he would be disappointed if she didn't run a big race. She hit the line strong and it was a great trip for a first time out. I definitely think she will step up in trip in time.
